Increased consolidation in US healthcare is under scrutiny as regulators and competitors label some companies ‘too big to fail.’ Mergers across the provider market and the healthcare supply chain—from corporate buyers to private equity and larger systems—have driven prices higher, but new fears around industry resilience and risk-management have emerged in the wake an industry-halting cyberattack. This panel will explore how regulatory frameworks and corporate risk management strategies can evolve after such events. Discussions will cover consolidation trends, regulatory and policy efforts to curb its influence, and potential antitrust measures to foster competition and support a more resilient healthcare industry.
